I shaved the skin off the outside of my right leg, from calf to knee, falling while in shorts and roller-blades on a paved rink, shooting a ball around with a hockey stick. I didn't bother getting it treated initially but then was close to vomiting at work so finally went to the doctor.

In your case, a doctor would probably give you some steroid based cream so that it heals faster AND stops tempting you with itching. Better give up and go see a doc. Right now, the scab is winning.
